My last day...

Fri May 1, 2009, 10:41 PM

Mood: Emotional
Listening to: Nothing
Reading: What I'm typing
Watching: A stupid documentary on Discovery HD
Playing: Nothing
Eating: Rice crackers with shrimp salad
Drinking: Milk

Sort of. Monday I take my new position with the State Gubbermint up in Santa Fe. Pretty much the same old crap I was doing in Albuquerque, but with more uppity white people who wear a lot of silver, turquoise, suede, and bolo ties. We found a condo that looks like adobe, but I think there's a zoning law in Santa Fe, because there's no Tudor or ranch houses to be seen. Madeline and I decided to move right after Marie passed in February because we thought the change would help us adjust.

We'll see.

I'll still have my friends in Albuquerque, it's only fifty miles and I expect to visit every couple of weeks, but I'm looking forward to a new set of friends, experiences, and challenges in Santa Fe.

Things are going well, thanks. I like Santa Fe just fine, but I've got a little bit of a wild hair and started exploring some opportunities in northern California, east Texas, or the Florida peninsula.

Madeline and I are still recovering from the loss of Marie earlier this year, but even so, we're both receptive to the idea of moving out of state.

How're things in your corner of the continent?

wow another move sounds cool, i think i like florida the best out of the three, although i've never lived in california...i did a few weeks training with some marines while i was in the navy out near san diego.
i'm sure its hard dealing with loosing Marie, thats my wifes middle name btw. they same time is the great healer, and i guess it does ease up some. i had a hard time dealing with my first wife's death, i guess we'll always miss our loved ones.
as for me, the s.o.s. basically but idid manage to save up for a downpayment on a car and im rolling in a 01 pontiac sunfire...its a little old but i'm enjoyn it alot. well i'll talk to ya later man.
take care

Thanks for your kind words, that means a lot, really.

An '01 isn't that old at all. As long as you keep up a car, it'll last a long time (maybe longer than you want it to!)

Florida would certainly be nice, especially since I'm from the Little Havana district of Miami. I might LOOK like an Hispanic thug, but I'm really pure nerd, so I might not mix well anymore...

The trick to moving back is to transfer all my training and licenses to the Miami-Dade coroner and Madeline can set up a new body mod shop somewhere in Miami.
